Meal Plans For A High-protein Diet
An interesting fact about proteins is that they can help you lose extra pounds, and at the same time and also gain muscle mass. Proteins are a fundamental component of all living cells. Proteins are considered the building blocks of the body. They are needed for the production, maintenance and repair of skin, hair, bones, and other organs of our body.
Proteins also play a significant role in the production of enzymes and hormones. For these reasons, proteins form an integral part of a healthy and balanced diet. A balanced intake of proteins in our diet can effectively help to lose weight. Proteins can be obtained through various dietary sources. The daily protein requirement for kids is approximately 0.5 grams per pound of their body weight.
Adults need about 60 grams of proteins everyday. A high-protein diet is helpful in healthy weight loss as it keeps your hunger satisfied and makes you feel full for a longer time. When you have more proteins and fewer carbohydrates in your diet, you feel less hungry throughout the day, leading to a lower calorie intake.
Such a diet stabilizes blood sugar levels. Some of these diet plans focus on bodybuilding. Such diet plans include protein bars, protein powders, and protein drinks. Some of the popular weight loss diets that include abundant amounts of proteins are the Atkins Diet, Zone Diet, and Sugar Busters. Meal plans for a high-protein diet are one of the most effective ways to lose weight fast and improve your overall health.
Scott Christ says: I’ll add the one from Genuine Health. I like a lot of the ingredients. The protein blend is fantastic. Not a huge fan of the flavors and xanthan gum. Demetria says: Is this safe to use during pregnancy? Scott Christ says: Yes, but show your doctor the ingredients to be on the safe side…everyone is different. My wife is pregnant and uses regularly. Just wondering about your Vega recommendation. So is Vega good or bad?
Scott Christ says: Hi Joy - I definitely wouldn’t classify Vega as “bad.” In my opinion, there are better/cleaner powders though, if that’s something that’s important to you. Lucy vaughan says: Please give me your prices for organic plant based protein. 31.99 if you sign up for our Subscribe & Save program.
Debbe Laszlo says: What is your opinion of Organifi. They are quite pricey though. 100 I just couldn’t justify the cost for their protein shakes. Is yours replacement meal as well? Scott Christ says: I like their protein blends and digestive enzymes and the fact that all their ingredients are organic. 80 is a little much, in my opinion. Ours is not a true meal replacement because it’s not high enough in calories.
We’ll be launching a meal replacement powder soon. Heather Ramsay says: I’m really excited about this product and just ordered my first bag. ’t even an organic product. I switched to Garden of Life Raw Meal. I really wanted to love it but- TMI- it gave me the worst constipation in years! I’m a very clean eater so I narrowed it down to that protein powder. In your option, is constipation going to be an issue with this? I would love some peace of mind.
I do use these kinds of drinks for breakfast and lunch due to conveince with my work schedule. FYI I do drink lots of water. Scott Christ says: Hi Heather - I’ve never heard a single customer complain about constipation with our products … probably due to the fiber content. Hopefully you’re not the first.
Heather Ramsay says: Thanks so much! Delivery says it will be here Tuesday! Scott Christ says: Thank you, Walter! The sodium comes mainly from the peas. We don’t add any. I’m considering a rice-free, stevia-free version of the protein. I am new to protein powders- am trying a healthier lifestyle with regular meals.
